GAY ATHENS

ABOUT THE CITY...
Athens isn't just an LGBTQ-friendly city, it's a place with a very long history of sexual liberalism that prides itself on catering to all its communities, affording everyone the widest possible range of choices. While the history of homosexuality is an essential part of Greek culture, Greeks are very covert about their sexuality, possibly due to modern Orthodoxy. Homosexuality is completely legal in Greece and more accepted in Athens than elsewhere in the country.
